A RAID array takes time to configure, so not the fastest.

I practiced a similar question, and I think replacing the drives is the quickest way to increase capacity without any downtime.

Connecting the server to a SAN sounds like a good idea, but I feel like it might involve more steps than just swapping out the drives.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about RAID arrays taking time to configure, so that might not be the best option for no downtime.

I think replacing the current drives with higher-capacity disks would be the fastest solution since it doesn't require any complex setup.
